On the fly asking why

i remember asking why,
i lifted my head and wondered why,
i looked down and began to cry,
of all the pain running by,
on this train of running dry,
laid me down with out goodbye,
when we all must die,
then i closed up and fell inside,
all the while on the fly,
of asking why?

Call my Name

America where you been baby,
I can't find you graceful lady,
Out there hanging in self indulgence,
Only getting that what’s in it for us,
Riding the backs of the poor,
Living legends of lore,
Taxes that lasts forever,
Politicians acting so clever,
America is calling you baby,
We need that Zippo lighter and Harly D,
That you used to be,
That good stuff of quality a strength,
Folks that will go to any length,
Hard work to stop the war,
Knowing what you fighting for,
That rages still underneath and abroad,
Land of the free land of pride,
What you trying to hide?
Where did you go baby?
Where are you Lady?
It's time to be real,
Like that old Detroit steel,
Honor thy mother and father,
Support one another
Husband to wife, congress to the pres,
It the only way to success,

America is calling you baby, calling your name,

The almighty wise one,
Is with us the lost ones found on the horizon,
A strong backed boy and girl,
That can carry the world,
Struggle pain and all,
Not a moment to stall,
Call us baby call our name,
One and the same,
Why build buildings so high above?
When we can build some bridges of faith and Love,

Young America is calling, calling your name…………….
